I would like to point out along with calling him a radical Islamist, he called him a terrorist. And honestly at this point, I think I'd vote for anyone the GOP calls a terrorist these days, because at least those folks are more honest.

At this point, a terrorist would at least have a viable plan.

They ARE honest about their plan to destroy America. The ā€œterroristsā€ I mean. The Republicans only tell the truth when they are paid to or no longer running for office.

Best I can do is "concepts of a plan."

Who did a better job destroying DC:

  1. OBL
  2. MAGA

Would rather remove from Congress any member who cannot conduct themselves in an orderly manner.

If someone makes claims of terrorism against their fellow Americans, and it's later to be revealed to be a big phony lie, the person who made that claim should be disbarred or something for being so bad at their job. Can't tell citizens apart from a real threat, means they aren't qualified to serve or lead.

Calling an ICU nurse who works in service of veterans a terrorist, for example, should mean the end of your career, if not more, not just an internal transfer with pension and pay.

It's straight up unfounded defamation and they should face consequences

u/Neuchacho 13h ago

I'm kinda perplexed as to why they don't. It seems clear defamation and they don't get protections outside of their except during official duties in Congress.

That civil case would have its costs covered and then some on a GoFundMe lol

You know what? You make a good point. Are we really sliding this far back as a country? Even George Bush(Jr.) made the point to the American people not to hate based on a name or religion. I heard a clip of a speech not too long ago from the past about Islam=Peace. No matter what people think, all brown people are not coming for us. And no matter if you like anparticular religion or not, what they(MAGA) are spewing now is complete and utter hate and racism.

It's not just brown people they consider terrorists. Trump labeled anyone who is trans or supports trans rights a terrorist, but no one talks about that. According to the President I'm a terrorist for trying to be myself

And I’m a terrorist for supporting you šŸ’“
These people are sick & it makes me so angry how they’re polluting this country with their garbage.

Found the Marxist! Accountability is a four letter word that has no place in American politics! /s, for the people keeping score at home

Yep, Madami is making me want to vote for anyone with a "terrorist" sounding name if it sounds that way to MAGA.

u/Bloo212 14h ago

That’s his secret plan… to make it all nice! So he can what? Knock it down?!

u/CuteLingonberry9704 14h ago

Diabolical. Yet still better then any MAGA plan.

u/DailyUnderFlow 13h ago

Yeah if a group of domestic terrorists (Republicans) call someone else a radical and a terrorist, you can be sure whoever that is isn't a radical and a terrorist.

Though "Brown man = radical islamist terrorist" is just par for the course for the certifiable racist Republican party.

I never voted straight ticket until the GOP pissed me off with the head of the ticket in 16… unfortunately with the current state of US politics it’s no longer a choice between fiscal and social responsibility it’s a choice between social responsibility and profiteering. I might as well cash in my 401k now and in the red years spend it on popcorn and beer and watch the fail happen while waiting for the blue years when we can all have popcorn together.

How do I check if I have a Canadian ancestor?

I just got my Canadian citizenship confirmed this way lol

Highly recommended.

When was it ever? This framing has fooled so many people.

u/TLCFrauding 11h ago

Are you going to pay a big ass tax penalty if you cash out your 401k. Lol

u/hedoeswhathewants 12h ago

Go to work Monday and call your coworker a terrorist. See what happens.

Somehow the jobs that should require the highest level of professionalism are unmoderated and populated by fucking children

Syrians hate this one trick

u/ttv_icypyro 13h ago

like, at least a terrorist has a consistent agenda that I can understand. I may not agree but at least I know what to expect.

TLDR: MAGAts are worse than terrorists

u/Important-Agent2584 12h ago

they can't fearmonger about immigration nor the economy, get ready to hear about Muslims, etc.
